A simple method based on the differential extraction of lysophosphatidylcholne (LPC) by saline and albumin solutions has been developed to study factors that influence lipid translocation across intact human erythrocyte membrane.With this assay, rate LPC bilayer at 37 "C was found be 1,87%/h (0.0187 h-').Identical rates were derived for normal cells in which ATP totally depleted, implying metabolic state cell had no influence.In contrast, strongly influenced temperature.Above 21 "C, doubled...
Background: Behavioral Theories of Choice applied to substance use suggests that depends on availability substances and alternative activities. Applying this theory younger adolescents offers the possibility investigating potentially malleable prevention intervention targets.

Death resulting from plastic bag asphyxia has been recognized for >40 years, but relatively little is known about either its epidemiology or pathophysiology. Over 15 years (1984-1998), 30 deaths were attributed to among the 14,560 autopsies performed in Forensic Medicine Unit Edinburgh. These involved 20 male and 10 female subjects, with an age range of 13 81 years. Eleven had some alcohol measurable blood, four having levels >80 mg/dl. Only one individual appeared have ingested a drug...
In order to define the influence of skeletal protein organization on transmembrane phospholipid movement in erythrocyte membranes, we measured translocation rate lysophosphatidylcholine pathologic red cells.A simple method based differential extraction from cell membrane by saline and albumin solutions was used quantitate rate.Two groups cells were chosen for these studies: with quantitative deficiencies proteins, spectrin 4.1, sickle erythrocytes which controlled reorganization induced...
All states issue criminal protection orders (POs) with the intention of improving lives victims domestic violence (DV); however, there is a dearth research examining their impact. This study aims to examine impact POs different levels restrictions on victims’ revictimization, mental health, and well-being. A cross-sectional design was used collect data regarding two time points during one interview among sample 298 in DV case. Across three PO (limited, residential stay-away, full...

It helped participants improve their lives, feel valued society, connect with others, have positive relationships loved ones community. This brief report highlights preliminary findings which...
Abstract Background People with substance use disorders (SUD) who have been involved in the legal system often experience stigma upon reentry into community after incarceration. Although treatment can sometimes be a source of stigma, it may also reduce by facilitating connections providers, reducing distress, or helping people feel more integrated their community. However, research has rarely examined potential for to stigma. Methods This study experiences and degree which reduced among 24...
The social reactions that victims receive when disclosing intimate partner violence (IPV) have important implications for recovery and well-being. Women from the community ( n = 172) reported IPV, to IPV disclosure, mental health symptoms in individual interviews. Latent profile analyses revealed three subgroups of with varied experiences reactions. group characterized by high negative/low positive highest depression posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptom severity; severity was...
